Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by preparing your ingredients for the Garlic Butter Chicken Crockpot. Chop the potatoes and carrots into bite-sized pieces and mince several cloves of garlic. Set everything aside.
  2. Place chicken thighs or breasts at the bottom of the slow cooker. Sprinkle the minced garlic on top, followed by dollops of butter. Add the chopped potatoes and carrots, spreading them over the chicken.
  3. Generously sprinkle salt, pepper, and your choice of herbs over the ingredients. Give the mixture a gentle shake to distribute the seasonings evenly.
  4. Cover your slow cooker and set it to cook on LOW for about 6 hours or on HIGH for 4 hours. Avoid lifting the lid during cooking.
  5. After the cooking time is complete, check the doneness of your Garlic Butter Chicken. The chicken should reach a safe internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  6. Once cooked, turn off the slow cooker and let the dish rest for about 10 minutes before serving.
